Abstrakt: The properties of Quade's "index of matched correlation" are explored in the context of causal analysis. Quade's approach is tested on data with specified characteristics generated through a computer simulation. Although nonparametric partial correlation must be used with caution, it supplies an easily interpreted and applied method for analyzing categorized data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
